Hybrid is a multi platform (Linux/Windows/MacOS (non-ARM)) Qt based frontend for a bunch of other tools which can convert nearly every input to x264/x265/Xvid/VP9/AV1... + ac3/ogg/mp3/aac/flac inside an mp4/m2ts/mkv/webm/mov/avi container, a Blu-ray or an AVCHD structure.
Hybrid is intended for advanced users.
It doesn't aim to be a tool used by everybody.
If you don't know the basics about contains, video formats, etc. Hybrid is not meant for you.
